McKinley's 2nd Birthday!

On August 24th, McKinley turned 2! We officially have a 2 year old on our hands! We had a lot of fun celebrating her 2nd birthday! To start out the day we went into McKinley's room when she woke up, singing Happy Birthday and throwing balloons into her crib!




This last picture is my favorite. I was trying to tell McKinley to hold up 2 fingers and say that she's 2, but she insisted on saying that she's 1. She gets mad at me when I tell her she's 2 and says, "No, 1! 1! 1! 1!" It's quite funny and shows her 2 year old attitude perfectly :)


We had McKinley's favorite breakfast of doughnuts!


McKinley loves playing in the rain, so it was perfect that it rained on her birthday. We've been in a drought all summer, so it was quite the shock that it actually rained! She loved it! It was a great birthday present!


We had her 2 year check-up on her birthday. Luckily, she's all finished with her immunizations until Kindergarten, so she didn't have to get any shots on her birthday! She did get a flu immunization, but since she's 2 they can use the nasal spray, so she didn't have to get poked! Here she is hiding from me at the doctor's office.


We came home from the doctor and played some more in the rain :) She's wearing her cute birthday outfit my Mother-in-law made for her birthday while we were visiting St. Louis in July!




That evening when Travis got off work we headed over to an indoor play place called, Lost In Fun! We enjoyed jumping in the bounce houses, playing basketball, sliding and swinging, playing the kitchen and coloring together! McKinley's favorite activities these days are "cooking" and coloring, so she was in heaven being able to do them!







Afterwards, we headed to one of McKinley's favorite restaurants, McDonald's for dinner. I took these funny pictures of her enjoying herself at McDonald's.





We then headed back home after a fun day and played outside for a little bit, another one of McKinley's favorite things to do! She loves picking flowers and giving them to people!



I can't believe my baby is already 2 years old! We love her so much and enjoy her fun personality! She's so sweet and sassy! We're so glad she became a part of our family 2 years ago!
